Re: Question about marriage in Islam
I must say you have a beautiful name, I really like it.
O ye who believe! let those whom your right hands possess, and the (children) among you who have not come of age ask your permission (before they come to your presence), on three occasions: before morning prayer; the while ye doff your clothes for the noonday heat; and after the late-night prayer: these are your three times of undress: outside those times it is not wrong for you or for them to move about attending to each other: Thus does Allah make clear the Signs to you: for Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom. (Quran 24:58)
Occasions apply to 'dependents' and 'childern who have NOT reached pubetry', and it make sense when parents are intheir private time they dont allow 5yrs old. But to interpret 24:59 pubtry as age limit, will be parent doing private in front of their 7yrs old since he/she isnt mature, doesnt make sense to me bro.
Btw how do define marriage?
Well it doesn' t necessarily have to make sense, it's in the Quran. Something that makes sense today may not tomorrow and vice versa, so this thing about making sense is not the appropriate way to interpreting the Quran.
So essentially you have taken the verse out of context because the "reaching the age of puberty" part doesn't make sense to you?
The age of puberty in Islam is when one reaches adulthood and is responsible for their own actions. So if a 7 year old hasn't reached puberty then he/she is still considered a child.
What do you mean by the definition of marriage? It's a contract between a man and a woman where both parties have to fulfill their responsibilities.
